Working on the smoking- gotta quit. Day 1 taking Chantix and I cannot sleep- anyone out there have this issue?

Day 3 of Chantix and still smoking but cigs def tasting worse and worse. Only 3 cigs today- so still proud of myself. I think I'm gonna get some blow pops or something- cuz I am noticing I want to smoke while on phone or when friends stop by (who smoke).

My husband and I both went on Chantix and we both hated it! Bad nausea and terrible, crazy dreams. I had to quit smoking because my surgeon won't operate on anyone who smokes so I used the patch. I only needed to wear it for a week and I forgot to put one on one day and I was fine. I want this surgery so bad that I have managed not to touch one in 3 months. Here in NC there is a quit line where you can sign up and they'll send free patches or gum.

Diekoi,

You are doing great! I was just gonna post and ask how you're doing, but I see that you're doing well. When I quit I always kept a pack of gum around and chewed a piece whenever I wanted to smoke. If nothing else it helped distract me.

So far smoke free today- don't even want it. Yay!
